Description

Specialties

BlackboxMyCar specializes in automotive dashcam products that not only record when you’re driving but also when you’re parked to protect you in the event of a hit and run or vandalism. We carry the top brands in the market such as Blackvue, BlackSys, FineVu, DOD, VicoVation, Skyview and more. Warranty is handled in house so there is no need for the customer to ship to an Asian manufacturer at their own expense. Installation services for dashcams are available by appointment.

We also carry other auto accessories like air fresheners and cell phone mounts.

History

Established in 2012.

In his sophomore year at the University of British Columbia, BlackboxMyCar founder Alex saw family members involved in a horrific car accident. Both parties denied responsibility for the collision, and because there was no video evidence to prove Alex’s family’s innocence the case took over a year to settle. When Alex realized that all these stresses could have been avoided with simple video evidence of the event, BlackboxMyCar was started. In 2012 BlackboxMyCar began selling Dash Cams in Canada, and quickly expanded into the rest of North America.

In February 2014, Alex suffered from his own hit-​and-​run accident when his parked vehicle got hit in a parking lot. Luckily, because of the dash cam that he had installed in his vehicle, he was able to attain footage of the entire incident. Alex uploaded this video footage online, and BlackboxMyCar received the attention of The Province, Vancouver Sun, Global News and more who reached out to Alex for an interview on dash cams.
